BACKGROUND 1. Field

The description relates to a reflecting module for optical imagestabilization (OIS) and a camera module including the same.

2. Description of Related Art

Recently, camera modules have been generally installed in portableelectronic devices such as tablet personal computers (PCs), laptop PCs,and the like, as well as in smartphones, and an autofocusing function,an optical image stabilization (OIS) function, a zoom function, and thelike, have been implemented in camera modules for mobile terminals.

However, in order to implement various functions, the structures of suchcamera modules have become complicated and the sizes thereof haveincreased, resulting in difficulty in mounting such camera modules inportable electronic devices.

In addition, when a lens or an image sensor is directly moved for thepurpose of optical image stabilization, both a weight of the lens or ofthe image sensor itself and weights of other members to which the lensor the image sensor is attached should be considered, and a certainlevel or more of driving force is thus required, resulting in increasedpower consumption.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a portable electronic device accordingto an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 1 , a portable electronic device 1 according to anembodiment may be a portable electronic device such as a mobilecommunications terminal, a smartphone, a tablet personal computer (PC),or the like, in which a camera module 1000 is mounted.

As shown in FIG. 1 , the portable electronic device 1 is provided withthe camera module 1000 to capture an image of a subject.

In an embodiment, the camera module 1000 includes lenses, and an opticalaxis (a Z axis) of each of the lenses is directed toward a directionperpendicular to a thickness direction (a Y-axis direction or adirection from a front surface of the portable electronic device to arear surface thereof or an opposite direction to the direction from thefront surface of the portable electronic device to the rear surfacethereof) of the portable electronic device 1.

In an embodiment, the optical axis (the Z axis) of each of the lensesincluded in the camera module 1000 is formed in a width or lengthdirection of the portable electronic device 1 rather than the thicknessdirection of the portable electronic device 1 (as an example, astructure in which the lenses are stacked in the width direction isillustrated in FIG. 1 ).

Therefore, even in the case that the camera module 1000 has functionssuch as an autofocusing (AF) function, a zoom function, an optical imagestabilization (hereinafter, referred to as OIS) function, a thickness ofthe portable electronic device 1 is not increased. Therefore, theportable electronic device 1 may be miniaturized.

The camera module 1000 according to an embodiment has one or more of theAF function, the zoom function, and the OIS function.

Since the camera module 1000 including the AF function, the zoomfunction, the OIS function needs to include various components, a sizeof the camera module is increased as compared to a general cameramodule.

When the size of the camera module 1000 is increased, a problem occursin miniaturizing the portable electronic device 1 in which the cameramodule 1000 is mounted.

For example, when the number of stacked lenses in the camera module isincreased for the purpose of the zoom function and stacked lenses aredisposed in the camera module in the thickness direction of the portableelectronic device, a thickness of the portable electronic device is alsoincreased depending on the number of stacked lenses. Therefore, when thethickness of the portable electronic device is not increased, the numberof stacked lenses may not be sufficiently secured, such that zoomperformance deteriorates.

In addition, an actuator moving a lens group in an optical axialdirection or a direction perpendicular to the optical axis needs to beinstalled in order to implement the AF function and the OIS function,and when the optical axis (the Z axis) of the lens group is formed inthe thickness direction of the portable electronic device, the actuatormoving the lens group needs also to be installed in the thicknessdirection of the portable electronic device. Therefore, a thickness ofthe portable electronic device is increased.

However, in the camera module 1000 according to an embodiment, theoptical axis (the Z axis) of each of the lenses is disposedperpendicularly to the thickness direction of the portable electronicdevice 1. Therefore, even in the case that the camera module 1000 havingthe AF function, the zoom function, and the OIS function is mounted inthe portable electronic device 1, the portable electronic device 1 maybe miniaturized.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a camera module according toembodiments, and FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of a camera moduleaccording to an embodiment.

Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3 , a camera module 1001 according to anembodiment includes a reflecting module 1100 for OIS (hereinafter,referred to as a ‘reflecting module’), a lens module 1200, and an imagesensor module 1300 provided in a case 1010.

The reflecting module 1100 changes a direction of light. As an example,a moving direction of light incident through an opening 1031 of a cover1030 covering an upper portion of the camera module 1001 is changedthrough the reflecting module 1100 so that the light is directed towardthe lens module 1200. To this end, the reflecting module 1100 includes areflecting member 1110 reflecting the light. A path of the lightincident to the reflecting module 1100 is changed by the reflectingmember 1110.

Therefore, a path of the light incident through the opening 1031 ischanged by the reflecting module 1100 so that the light is directedtoward the lens module 1200. For example, a path of light incident inthe thickness direction (the Y-axis direction) of the camera module 1001is changed by the reflecting module 1100 to coincide with the opticalaxial direction (a Z-axial direction).

The lens module 1200 includes lenses through which the light of whichthe moving direction is changed by the reflecting module 1100 passes,and the image sensor module 1300 includes an image sensor 1310converting the light passing through the lenses into an electricalsignal and a printed circuit board 1320 on which the image sensor 1310is mounted. In addition, the image sensor module 1300 includes anoptical filter 1340 filtering the light incident from the lens module1200 thereto. The optical filter 1340 may be an infrared cut-off filter.

In the case 1010, the reflecting module 1100 is provided in front of thelens module 1200, and the image sensor module 1300 is provided behindthe lens module 1200.

FIG. 4 is an exploded perspective view of a camera module according toan embodiment, FIG. 5 is an exploded perspective view of a reflectingmodule of a camera module according to an embodiment, and FIG. 6 is aperspective view of an elastic member of a camera module according to anembodiment.

Referring to FIGS. 2 through 6 , the camera module 1001 according to anembodiment includes the reflecting module 1100, the lens module 1200,and the image sensor module 1300 provided in the case 1010.

The case 1010 includes the reflecting module 1100, the lens module 1200,and the image sensor module 1300 sequentially provided from one sidethereof to the other side thereof. The case 1010 has an internal spaceinto which the reflecting module 1100, the lens module 1200, and theimage sensor module 1300 are disposed (the image sensor module 1300 maybe attached to an outer portion of the case 1010).

Here, as shown in the drawings, the case 1010 is entirely integrallyprovided so that both of the reflecting module 1100 and the lens module1200 are disposed into the internal space of the case 1010. In addition,the case 1010 may be provided integrally with a housing 1150 of thereflecting module 1100, such that the other components of the reflectingmodule 1100 are directly provided in the case 1010 (in this case, thecase 1010 and the housing 1150 are essentially the same). Alternatively,the reflecting module 1100 and the lens module 1200 may be separatelyprovided, and may be attached and connected to each other to form thecase 1010.

In addition, the case 1010 is covered by the cover 1030 so that theinternal space of the case 1010 is not visible.

The cover 1030 has the opening 1031 through which light is incident, anda direction of the light incident through the opening 1031 is changed bythe reflecting module 1100, such that the light is incident to the lensmodule 1200. The cover 1030 is integrally provided to cover the entirecase 1010, or may be provided as separate members each covering thereflecting module 1100 and the lens module 1200.

To this end, the reflecting module 1100 includes the reflecting member1110 reflecting the light. In addition, the light incident to the lensmodule 1200 passes through the lenses and is converted into and storedas an electrical signal by the image sensor 1310.

The case 1010 includes the reflecting module 1100 and the lens module1200 disposed in the internal space thereof. Therefore, in the internalspace of the case 1010, a space in which the reflecting module 1100 isdisposed and a space in which the lens module 1200 is disposed aredistinguished from each other by protruding walls 1007 (However, thespace in which the reflecting module 1100 is disposed and the space inwhich the lens module 1200 is disposed may be provided in an entirelyone space without being separately distinguished from each other). Inaddition, the reflecting module 1100 is provided in front of theprotruding walls 1007, and the lens module 1200 is provided behind theprotruding walls 1007. The protruding walls 1007 protrude from oppositesides of the case 1010 to the internal space.

In addition, the case 1010 includes a first driving part 1170 and asecond driving part 1240 each provided in order to drive the reflectingmodule 1100 and the lens module 1200. The first driving part 1170includes coils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b, and 1177 b for driving thereflecting module 1100, and the second driving part 1240 includes coils1241 b and 1243 b for driving the lens module 1200. In addition, thecoils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b, 1177 b, 241 b, and 1243 b are provided onthe housing 1150 and the case 1010, respectively, in a state in whichthey are mounted on boards 1160 and 1260, respectively.

In addition, the housing 1150 is provided with a through-hole 1151 sothat coils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b, and 1177 b of the first driving part1170 are exposed to an inner portion of the housing 1150, and areprovided with through-holes 1018 and 1019 so that the coils 1241 b and1243 b of the second driving part 1240 are exposed to the internal spacein order to drive the case 1010.

In addition, the boards 1160 and 1260 on which the coils 1171 b, 1173 b,1175 b, 1177 b, 1241 b, and 1243 b are mounted are flexible printedcircuit boards (FPCBs) or rigid PCBs (RPCBs), and when the boards 1160and 1260 are the FPCBs, reinforcing plates (not illustrated) may beprovided on lower surfaces of the boards in order to reinforce rigidityof the boards.

The reflecting module 1100 changes the path of the light incidentthereto through the opening 1031. When an image or a moving image iscaptured, the image may be blurred or the moving image may be shaken dueto a hand-shake, or the like, of a user. In this case, the reflectingmodule 1100 corrects the hand-shake, or the like, of the user by movinga moving holder 1120 on which the reflecting member 1110 is mounted. Forexample, when shaking is generated at the time of capturing the image orthe moving image due to the hand-shake of the user, a relativedisplacement corresponding to shaking is provided to the moving holder1120 to compensate for shaking.

In addition, in an embodiment, the OIS function is implemented by themovement of the moving holder 1120 having a relatively low weight sinceit does not include lenses, and the like, and power consumption is thussignificantly reduced.

That is, in an embodiment, the light on which the OIS is performed isincident to the lens module 1200 by changing the direction of the lightby the movement of the moving holder 1120 on which the reflecting member1110 is provided without moving the lens barrel including the lenses orthe image sensor in order to implement the OIS function.

The reflecting module 1100 includes the reflecting member 1110, themoving holder 1120 having the reflecting member 1110 mounted thereon, anelastic member 1130 supporting the moving holder 1120 so that the movingholder 1120 is moved, the housing 1150 having the elastic member 1130fixedly coupled thereto so that the moving holder 1120 is provided in aninternal space thereof, the board 1160 coupled to the housing 1150, andthe first driving part 1170 including the coils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b,and 1177 b and hall sensors 1171 c and 1175 c provided on the board 1160and magnets 1171 a, 1173 a, 1175 a, and 1177 a provided on the movingholder 1120. The reflecting module includes a cover 1180 disposed on thehousing 1150 and having an opening 1181 through which the reflectingmember 1110 is exposed.

The reflecting member 1110 changes the direction of the light. Forexample, the reflecting member 1110 may be a mirror or a prismreflecting the light (a case in which the reflecting member 1110 is themirror is illustrated in the drawings associated with the firstexemplary embodiment for convenience of explanation).

The reflecting member 1110 is fixed to the moving holder 1120. Themoving holder 1120 has a mounting surface 1123 on which the reflectingmember 1110 is mounted.

The mounting surface 1123 of the moving holder 1120 may be an inclinedsurface so that the path of the light is changed. For example, themounting surface 1123 is an inclined surface inclined with respect tothe optical axis (the Z axis) at 45°. In addition, the inclined surfaceof the moving holder 1120 may be directed toward the opening 1031 of thecover 1030 through which the light is incident.

The moving holder 1120 on which the reflecting member 1110 is mounted ismovably accommodated in the internal space of the housing 1150. In otherwords, the moving holder 1120 is moved by an action of the first drivingpart 1170 so that a relative interval between the moving holder 1120 andthe housing 1150 is changed, depending on each position of the movingholder 1120.

The moving holder 1120 is movably fixed to the elastic member 1130. Theelastic member 1130 is also fixed to the housing 1150, and the movingholder 1120 is moved relative to the housing 1150 by driving of thefirst driving part 1170. Therefore, the OIS may be performed.

The elastic member 1130 includes a fixed frame 1131 fixed to the housing1150, a moving frame 1135 provided in the fixed frame 1131 and fixed tothe moving holder 1120, and a moving spring 1133 connecting the fixedframe 1131 and the moving frame 1135 to each other and rotatable aroundtwo axes (first and second axes). In addition, the fixed frame 1131, themoving spring 1133, and the moving frame 1135 may be provided integralwith one another. In addition, the fixed frame 1131 and the moving frame1135 have different sizes, but may have the same shape such as apolygonal shape or a round ring shape.

Here, since the moving holder 1120 is fixed to the housing 1150 by onlythe elastic member 1130, when the moving holder 1120 is moved inrelation to the two axes (the first and second axes) by the firstdriving part 1170, the moving holder 1120 is not rotated around arotation axis that is accurately fixed, and may be moved to be entirelybiased in a direction in which force is applied to the moving holder1120 by the first driving part 1170 (a direction in which the movingholder 1120 is pulled or pushed).

The moving spring 1133 has a structure in which a first spring 1133 aextended in the first axis A1 direction and a second spring 1133 bextended in the second axis A2 direction perpendicular to the first axisA1 direction are provided integral with each other (here, the first axisA1 and the second axis A2, axes provided along the inclined mountingsurface 1123 of the moving holder 1120, may be axes perpendicular toeach other). In addition, the first spring 1133 a includes one or moresprings extended in the first axis A1 direction, and the second spring1133 b includes one or more springs extended in the second axis A2direction. In addition, a connection portion between the first spring1133 a and the second spring 1133 b has a bent or angular shape (see thedescription for previously described embodiments and FIGS. 17 and 18 ,drawings related to an embodiment with respect to a case in which theconnection portion between the first spring 1133 a and the second spring1133 b has an angular shape). Since the moving spring 1133 is integrallyprovided and includes the spring provided along the first axis and thespring provided along the second axis, the moving spring 1133 freelyrotates around the first axis and the second axis.

The first driving part 1170 generates driving force so that the movingholder 1120 is rotatable around the two axes (the first axis A1 and thesecond axis A2). Therefore, the moving holder 1120 may be moved so thatan interval between the moving holder 1120 and a bottom surface of thehousing 1150 in each portion is changed.

As an example, the first driving part 1170 includes the magnets 1171 a,1173 a, 1175 a, and 1177 a and the coils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b, and1177 b disposed to face the magnets 1171 a, 1173 a, 1175 a, and 1177 a.

When power is applied to the coils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b, and 1177 b,the moving holder 1120 on which the magnets 1171 a, 1173 a, 1175 a, and1177 a are mounted rotates around the first axis and the second axis byelectromagnetic interaction between the magnets 1171 a, 1173 a, 1175 a,and 1177 a and the coils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b, and 1177 b.

The magnets 1171 a, 1173 a, 1175 a, and 1177 a are mounted on the movingholder 1120. As an example, the magnets 1171 a, 1173 a, 1175 a, and 1177a are mounted on a lower surface of the moving holder 1120.

The coils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b, and 1177 b are mounted on the housing1150. As an example, the coils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b, and 1177 b aremounted on the housing 1150 through the board 1160. That is, the coils1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b, and 1177 b are provided on the board 1160, andthe board 1160 is mounted on the housing 1150. In addition, the housing1150 is provided with the through-hole 1151 so that the coils 1171 b,1173 b, 1175 b, and 1177 b provided on the board 1160 attached to anouter surface of the housing 1150 are exposed to the internal space ofthe housing 1150.

A reinforcing plate (not illustrated) may be mounted below the board1160 in order to reinforce strength of the main board.

In an embodiment, when the moving holder 1120 is rotated, a closed loopcontrol manner of sensing and feeding back a position of the movingholder 1120 is used.

FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view of a camera module according to anembodiment, FIG. 10 is an exploded perspective view of the camera moduleaccording to an embodiment, FIG. 11 is an exploded perspective view of areflecting module of the camera module according to an embodiment, andFIG. 12 is a perspective view of an elastic member (a gimbal) of thecamera module according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIGS. 2, and 9 through 12 , all the components of a cameramodule 1002 according to an embodiment except for a reflecting moduleare the same as those of the camera module 1001 according to previousembodiments. Hereinafter, a configuration of the reflecting module willbe described in detail, and previously described components will bedenoted by the same reference numerals, and a detailed descriptionthereof will be omitted.

The camera module 1002 according to an embodiment includes a reflectingmodule 1100-2, the lens module 1200, and the image sensor module 1300provided in the case 1010.

The reflecting module 1100-2 according to an embodiment may be the sameas the reflecting module 1100 according to previous embodiments exceptthat it includes a gimbal 1190 corresponding to the moving holder 1120and the elastic member 1130 of previous embodiments and provided as onemember. Therefore, the gimbal 1190 will be described in detail, andother components of which relative positions, and the like, are changedwill thus be briefly additionally described.

The gimbal 1190 includes a fixed frame 1191 fixed to the housing 1150, afirst moving frame 1193 provided in the fixed frame 1191, and a secondmoving frame 1195 provided in the first moving frame 1193. In addition,the fixed frame 1191 and the first moving frame 1193 are connected toeach other by a second axis member 1194 extended in the second axis A2direction, and the first moving frame 1193 and the second moving frame1195 are connected to each other by a first axis member 1192 extended inthe first axis A1 direction perpendicular to the second axial directionA2. Therefore, the first moving frame 1193 is rotatable around thesecond axis A2, and the second moving frame 1195 is rotatable around thefirst axis A1 and the second axis A2. It is to be noted that since thesecond moving frame 1195 is always moved together with the first movingframe 1193 when the first moving frame 1193 is moved, in a case in whichthe first moving frame 1193 is rotated around the second axis A2, thefirst moving frame 1193 and the second moving frame 1195 are not movedrelative to each other, and in a case in which the second moving frame1195 is rotated around the first axis A1, the first moving frame 1193 isnot moved, and the first moving frame 1193 and the second moving frame1195 are thus moved relative to each other.

Here, the fixed frame 1191, the first moving frame 1193, and the secondmoving frame 1195 have different sizes, but may have the same shape suchas a polygonal shape or a round ring shape.

Meanwhile, magnets 1171 a, 1173 a, 1175 a, and 1177 a are provided on alower surface of the reflecting module 1100-2 according to anembodiment, and a reflecting member 1110 is provided on an upper surfaceof the reflecting module 1100-2.

In addition, at the time of performing OIS driving, the second movingframe 1195 is always involved in the OIS driving to perform a rotarymotion, and all of the magnets 1171 a, 1173 a, 1175 a, and 1177 a areprovided on the second moving frame 1195 of the gimbal 1190.Alternatively, the magnets 1171 a and 1175 a involved in rotation aroundthe second axis A2 among the plurality of magnets 1171 a, 1173 a, 1175a, and 1177 a are provided on the first moving frame 1193, and the othermagnets 1173 a and 1177 a are provided on the second moving frame 1195.

In addition, the reflecting member 1110 is provided on the upper surfaceof the reflecting module 1100-2. In this case, the second moving frame1195 is rotated relative to the fixed frame 1191 and the first movingframe 1193 when it is rotated around the first axis A1, and may berotated relative to the fixed frame 1191 when it is rotated around thesecond axis A2. In addition, since the reflecting member 1110 is coupledto an upper surface of the second moving frame 1195, a portion of thesecond moving frame 1195 includes a protruding portion 1195 a protrudingin an upward direction so that the reflecting member 1110 does notinterfere in the fixed frame 1191 and the first moving frame 1193 whenthe reflecting member 1110 is rotated around the first axis A1,resulting in allowing the reflecting member 1110 to maintain a certaininterval from the fixed frame 1191 and the first moving frame 1193 whenthe OIS driving is not performed (see the cross-sectional view of FIG. 9).

In addition, a portion of the second moving frame 1195 includes aprotruding portion 1195 b protruding in a downward direction, resultingin allowing the magnets 1175 a and 1177 a fixedly mounted on the secondmoving frame 1195 to maintain a certain interval from the fixed frame1191 and the first moving frame 1193 when the OIS driving is notperformed (see the cross-sectional view of FIG. 9 ). This is also toallow the magnets 1175 a and 1177 a not to interfere in the fixed frame1191 and the first moving frame 1193 when the second moving frame 1195is rotated around the first axis A1 and the second axis A2. Even in thecase that the protruding portion 1195 b is not included in the secondmoving frame 1195, shapes or sizes of the magnets 1175 a and 1177 a maybe optimized to allow the magnets 1175 a and 1177 a not to interfere inthe fixed frame 1191 and the first moving frame 1193 even in the casethat the second moving frame 1195 is rotated in a state in which themagnets 1175 a and 1177 a are mounted on the second moving frame 1195.

FIGS. 13A through 13C are schematic views of an example in which areflecting member according to an embodiment is rotated around a firstaxis, and FIGS. 14A through 14C are schematic views of an example inwhich the reflecting member according to an embodiment is rotated arounda second axis.

Referring to FIGS. 13A through 13C, when the reflecting member 1110 ismoved in relation to the first axis A1, the magnets 1175 a and 1177 aand the coils 1175 b and 1177 b aligned in the second axis A2 directionperpendicular to the first axis A1 move toward or away from each other,respectively. That is, the reflecting member 1110 is moved so that aninterval between the magnet 1175 a and the coil 1175 b disposed at anupper portion in relation to the first axis A1 is greater or smallerthan that between the magnet 1177 a and the coil 1177 b disposed at alower portion in relation to the first axis A1. In this case, the secondmoving frame 1195 is singly rotated together with the reflecting member1100 to be thus rotated relative to the fixed frame 1191 and the firstmoving frame 1193.

In addition, referring to FIGS. 14A through 14C, when the reflectingmember 1110 is moved in relation to the second axis A2, the magnets 1171a and 1173 a and the coils 1171 b and 1173 b aligned in the first axisA1 direction perpendicular to the second axis A2 move toward or awayfrom each other, respectively. That is, the reflecting member 1110 ismoved so that an interval between the magnet 1173 a and the coil 1173 bdisposed at an upper portion in relation to the second axis A2 isgreater or smaller than that between the magnet 1171 a and the coil 1171b disposed at a lower portion in relation to the second axis A2. In thisexample, the second moving frame 1195 is rotated together with the firstmoving frame 1193, such that the second moving frame 1195 and the firstmoving frame 1193 are not moved relative to each other, but are rotatedrelative to the fixed frame 1191.

FIG. 15 is a cross-sectional view of a camera module according to anembodiment, FIG. 16 is an exploded perspective view of a camera moduleaccording to an embodiment, FIG. 17 is an exploded perspective view of areflecting module of the camera module according to an embodiment, andFIG. 18 is a perspective view of an elastic member of the camera moduleaccording to an embodiment.

Referring to FIGS. 2, and 15 through 18 , all the components of a cameramodule 1003 according to an embodiment except for a reflecting moduleare the same as those of the camera module 1001 according to previousembodiments. Hereinafter, a configuration of the reflecting module willbe described in detail below, and the same components will be denoted bythe same reference numerals, and a detailed description thereof will beomitted.

The camera module 1003 according to an embodiment includes a reflectingmodule 1100-3, the lens module 1200, and the image sensor module 1300provided in the case 1010.

The reflecting module 1100-3 according to an embodiment may be differentfrom the reflecting module 1100 according to previous embodiments due toincluding a post 1125 corresponding to a component of the moving holder1120 of previous embodiments and protruding from an approximatelycentral portion of a lower surface of the moving holder 1120 in adownward direction and a housing 1150 is provided with an insertion hole1153 into which the post 1125 is inserted. In addition, according tosuch a structure, the first driving part 1170 is provided on an outersurface of the post 1125 and an inner surface of the insertion hole1153.

In the reflecting module 1100-3 according to an embodiment, the movingholder 1120 includes the post 1125, such that the center of gravity ofthe moving holder 1120 including the post 1125 is lowered in thedownward direction. Therefore, the center of rotation of the movingholder 1120 is also lowered in the downward direction, such thatrotation precision of the reflecting member 1110 mounted on the movingholder 1120 is further improved.

The reflecting module 1100-3 includes the reflecting member 1110, themoving holder 1120 having the reflecting member 1110 mounted thereon andincluding the post 1125 protruding in the downward direction, an elasticmember 1130 supporting the moving holder 1120 so that the moving holder1120 is moved, the housing 1150 including the insertion hole 1153 intowhich the post 1125 is inserted and having the elastic member 1130fixedly coupled thereto so that the moving holder 1120 is providedthereon, the board 1160 coupled to the insertion hole 1153 of thehousing 1150, and the first driving part 1170 including the coils 1171b, 1173 b, 1175 b, and 1177 b and hall sensors 1171 c and 1175 cprovided on the board 1160 and magnets 1171 a, 1173 a, 1175 a, and 1177a provided on the outer surface of the post 1125 of the moving holder1120. Meanwhile, the moving holder 1120 further includes a mirror fixingmember 1126 disposed on an upper surface thereof so that the reflectingmember 1110 is mounted, and cover members 1127 and 1128 covering memberssuch as the elastic member 1130 may be further included on an uppersurface of the housing 1150. Therefore, excessive movement of the movingholder 1120 in an outward direction is prevented.

The reflecting member 1110 changes a direction of light. For example,the reflecting member 1110 may be a mirror or a prism reflecting thelight (a case in which the reflecting member 1110 is a mirror isillustrated in the drawings associated with an embodiment forconvenience of explanation).

The reflecting member 1110 is fixed to the moving holder 1120. Themoving holder 1120 may have a mounting surface (not illustrated) onwhich the reflecting member 1110 is mounted. Meanwhile, the movingholder 1120 further includes the mirror fixing member 1126 disposed onthe upper surface thereof in order to mount the reflecting member 1110,and fixing holes 1124 are provided in the upper surface of the movingholder 1120 and fixing protrusions 1126 a are provided in a lowersurface of the mirror fixing member 1126, such that the moving holder1120 and the mirror fixing member 1126 may be coupled to each other in afitting manner, for example, they can be coupled to each other throughbonding by an adhesive (the moving holder 1120 and the mirror fixingmember 1126 may be fixed to each other by various other coupling methodsbetween members known in the art). In addition, an inclined mountingsurface 1126 a is provided on an upper surface of the mirror fixingmember 1126, and the reflecting member 1110 is fixedly mounted on themounting surface 1126 a.

The upper surface of the moving holder 1120 may be an inclined surfaceso that a path of the light is changed. Therefore, the mirror fixingmember 1126 coupled to the upper surface of the moving holder 1120 isalso mounted on the moving holder in an inclined state. Therefore, themounting surface 1126 a is an inclined surface inclined with respect to,for example, the optical axis (the Z axis) of each of the plurality oflenses at approximately 45°. In addition, the inclined surface of themounting surface 1126 a is directed toward the opening 1031 of the cover1030 through which the light is incident.

The moving holder 1120 on which the reflecting member 1110 is mounted ismovably accommodated in an internal space of the housing 1150. In otherwords, the moving holder 1120 is moved by an action of the first drivingpart 1170 so that a relative interval between the moving holder 1120 andthe housing 1150 is changed, depending on each position of the movingholder 1120.

The moving holder 1120 is movably fixed to the elastic member 1130. Theelastic member 1130 is also fixed to the housing 1150, and the movingholder 1120 is moved relative to the housing 1150 by driving of thefirst driving part 1170. Therefore, the OIS is performed.

The elastic member 1130 includes a fixed frame 1131 fixed to the housing1150, a moving frame 1135 provided in the fixed frame 1131 and fixed tothe moving holder 1120, and a moving spring 1133 connecting the fixedframe 1131 and the moving frame 1135 to each other and rotatable aroundtwo axes (first and second axes). In addition, the fixed frame 1131, themoving spring 1133, and the moving frame 1135 are provided integral withone another. In addition, the fixed frame 1131 and the moving frame 1135have different sizes, but may have the same shape such as a polygonalshape or a round ring shape.

Here, since the moving holder 1120 is fixed to the housing 1150 by onlythe elastic member 1130, when the moving holder 1120 is moved inrelation to the two axes (the first and second axes) by the firstdriving part 1170, the moving holder 1120 is not rotated around arotation axis that is accurately fixed, and may be moved to be entirelybiased in a direction in which force is applied to the moving holder1120 by the first driving part 1170 (a direction in which the movingholder 1120 is pulled or pushed). Therefore, in order to correct fordifficulty in driving control of the moving holder 1120, the post 1125protruding in the downward direction is provided at a lower portion ofthe moving holder 1120 to lower the center of gravity (the center ofrotation) of the moving holder 1120. Therefore, the moving holder 1120performs a rotary motion close to a circle around a rotation axis.

The moving spring 1133 has a structure in which a first spring 1133 aextended in the first axis A1 direction and a second spring 1133 bextended in the second axis A2 direction perpendicular to the first axisA1 direction are provided integral with each other (here, the first axisA1 and the second axis A2, axes provided along the inclined mountingsurface 1126 a of the moving holder 1120, are axes perpendicular to eachother). In addition, the first spring 1133 a includes one or moresprings extended in the first axis A1 direction, and the second spring1133 b includes one or more springs extended in the second axis A2direction. In addition, a connection portion between the first spring1133 a and the second spring 1133 b has a bent or angular shape (see adescription for previous embodiments and FIGS. 5 and 6 , drawingsrelated to an embodiment with respect to an example in which theconnection portion between the first spring 1133 a and the second spring1133 b has a round shape). Since the moving spring 1133 is integrallyprovided and includes the spring provided along the first axis and thespring provided along the second axis, the moving spring 1133 freelyrotates around the first axis and the second axis.

The first driving part 1170 generates driving force so that the movingholder 1120 is rotatable around the two axes (the first axis A1 and thesecond axis A2). Therefore, the moving holder 1120 is moved so that aninterval between the moving holder 1120 and a bottom surface of thehousing 1150 in each portion is changed.

As an example, the first driving part 1170 includes the magnets 1171 a,1173 a, 1175 a, and 1177 a and the coils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b, and1177 b disposed to face the magnets 1171 a, 1173 a, 1175 a, and 1177 a.

When power is applied to the coils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b, and 1177 b,the moving holder 1120 on which the magnets 1171 a, 1173 a, 1175 a, and1177 a are mounted rotates around the first axis and the second axis byelectromagnetic interaction between the magnets 1171 a, 1173 a, 1175 a,and 1177 a and the coils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b, and 1177 b.

The magnets 1171 a, 1173 a, 1175 a, and 1177 a are mounted on the movingholder 1120. As an example, the magnets 1171 a, 1173 a, 1175 a, and 1177a are mounted on the outer surface of the post 1125 of the moving holder1120.

The coils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b, and 1177 b are mounted on the housing1150. As an example, the coils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b, and 1177 b aremounted in the insertion hole 1153 of the housing 1150 through the board1160. That is, the coils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175 b, and 1177 b are providedon the board 1160, and the board 1160 is mounted in the insertion hole1153.

In an embodiment, when the moving holder 1120 is rotated, a closed loopcontrol manner of sensing and feeding back a position of the movingholder 1120 is used.

Therefore, position sensors 1171 c and 1175 c may be required in orderto perform a closed loop control. The position sensors 1171 c and 1175 cmay be hall sensors.

The position sensors 1171 c and 1175 c are disposed inside or outsidethe coils 1171 b and 1175 b, respectively, and may be mounted on theboard 1160 on which the coils 1171 b and 1175 b are mounted.

Meanwhile, the board 1160 may be provided with a gyro sensor (notillustrated) sensing shaking factor such as hand-shake, or the like, ofthe user, and may be provided with a driver integrated circuit (IC) (notillustrated) providing driving signals to the coils 1171 b, 1173 b, 1175b, and 1177 b.

FIGS. 19A through 19C are schematic views of an example in which amoving holder according to an embodiment is moved in relation to a firstaxis or a second axis.

Referring to FIGS. 19A through 19C, when the moving holder 1120 is movedin relation to the first axis A1, the magnets 1175 a and 1177 a and thecoils 1175 b and 1177 b aligned in the second axis A2 directionperpendicular to the first axis A1 move toward or away from each other,respectively. That is, the moving holder 1120 is moved so that aninterval between the magnet 1175 a and the coil 1175 b disposed at anupper portion in relation to the first axis A1 is greater or smallerthan that between the magnet 1177 a and the coil 1177 b disposed at alower portion in relation to the first axis A1.

In addition, when the moving holder 1120 is moved in relation to thesecond axis A2, the magnets 1171 a and 1173 a and the coils 1171 b and1173 b aligned in the first axis A1 direction perpendicular to thesecond axis A2 move toward or away from each other, respectively. Thatis, the moving holder 1120 is moved so that an interval between themagnet 1171 a and the coil 1171 b disposed on one side in relation tothe second axis A2 is greater or smaller than that between the magnet1173 a and the coil 1173 b disposed on the other side in relation to thesecond axis A2.
